Here it is again, the dear,
The choicest prize of the year,
In her white and purple hood
Brightening the hours with all that's good
We. who, sometimes worn with care.
Take the paths, to find unaware
Joy that heartens, hope that thrills,
Love our cup of life that fills.
Since in the year's remembered nooks,
Lifting fair familiar looks.
Brings to us thoughts of happy days.
Casting 'round us cheerful rays ;
Once again with courtesying grace,
In the same familiar place.
Our class its' manual sign has set
In this fair prize, " OuR Clinic'

AviDON. Maurice S., * A E
Anderson, Wm.
Utah
Silent of speech, vet no recUise, is this worthy and respected member of the
senior class. Life to him is a funny proposition after all, as he has come to realize
that his very hair on his head are numbered. — Is this the result of simple married
life, or has the little addition to his family been responsible for this " Alopecia
Prematura ? "
New Jersey
Lo, second upon our list is this fair-haired Israelite. He has tried to set the world
afire, but uses too poor a grade of kerosene. He is always willing to give advice
and offer his contribution to the great medical world, yet no one ever heard him say
anvthing worth listening to.
Benson, F. L. ( " Benny ") , $ B n
Dubois. Pa.
Benny is the only man of Falstaffian proportions in the class. He has never
been Unown to worry, which probably accounts for the avoirdupois. Many men
liave asked him what he eats, but no answer — it is a secret. Benny is a good-
lookine fellow — if vou don't believe it, look in Bsrenfritz's window.
Berry, C. P.. M. D., * S
Boston, Mass.
College of P. and S., Boston, '99.
Berry has practiced medicine during spare time for the last ten years. Helped
Lawson " bust " the copper market and came to Baltimore in the interest of " me
and Tom." under the pretext of taking a special course in medicine. Swaps pony
tips with Longsdorf and helps pay Hereford's gas bills. " Doctor " has a fondness
for Prince Alberts and carnations.
Blake, G. C, K*
Glen Jean, W. \"a.
Grove is an active member of the Sears Athletic Club. Since entering civiliza-
tion has developed a fondness for bathtubs and has been known to sleep in one. He
is rather tall and nice to look upon, but is a bad man. judging- from reports. Gris-
inger says he likes his suds, and " Gris " ought to know.
Blanes, Antonio
Puerto Rico
Formerly a comedian, ever possessed with a sunny smile. Hails from that
picturesque little island of Puerto Rico, where the dark-eyed senoritas have their
natural habitat. Is distinguished by his cute little moustache and his rapid powers
with the fair sex. The world will hear from him later, as the " bookies " already
have.
I'.lan'KIlNSIIII', W. D. (" iUid "), X Z X, A A E
Treasurer 07-08; Secretary 09-10.
Chillicotlie, Ohio
Bud is general handy man in the class, having served on the sick committee for
four )-ears. He carries a pipe, but no tobacco or matches. Wears a chronic
" gimme " expression and pitches pennies between lectures. He joined the bene-
ilicts last year and immediately became a " sufl'ragette." At present he is busy culti-
x'ating a lovely ( ?) crop of sideburns.
Boi/rnN, H. A. C Harry "). * X
Massachusetts
This kind-hearted, good-natured fellow is from Massachusetts. This accounts
for his modesty and jjrofessional appearance. Before entering P. and S. Harris was
a school teacher in the little red school house on the hill. Here he imparted knowl-
edge to the extent of his ability. In Baltimore he has confined his operations to the
Y. M. C. A. and dancing. In the latter art lie e.xcells. The ladies consider him
" real cute."
26
BONNESS, E. I. ("Bonny'')
Canada
Bonny is a great sport and ladies man. Who doesn't remember seeing him at
least once on Charles Street, attempting to introduce purple socks in the " beau
nionde." He is always at hand when there are social functions at Alt. Vernon
Church and the Germania Maennerchor Hall. The girls will miss him greatly.
Brehmer, H. L. (" Jick "), Z X Z
Chillicothe, Ohio
Historian 07-08 ; Year-Book Com. 08-09.
Jick or 'Andsome 'Arry. hails from tlie town Bud Horatio Alger Blankenship
has made famous, and realizes that he must uphold the glory of the old town.
From the study of Pennsylvania Dutch, he has turned his attention to the " War of
the Roses." Strange to relate, he sympathizes with the Red Rose, the emblem of
the House of Lancaster. He wears a red rose over the spot where his heart should
be. He is a consistent lover, for " Everv day is ladies' da^- with him."

Burn, J. J. ( " Jerry ") , <I> B n
New Jersey
Jerry is a merry man — with himself. i\'Iay be seen in tlie halls between
lectnres in deep meditation. The reason for this is unknown, save to himself. His
book, " Meditations for Students," is shortly to be published.
Campbell, O. C, K *
Volga, W. \'a.
Another of the recently acquired West Virginia curios. He is a Jack of all
trades, having done everything from digging coal to riding a county circuit. Is
known in police circles as Lebean and has been an expensive luxury to his class as
a result of this distinction. It is rumored that he has been engaged to train Jim
Jeffries, and judging by. his pugilistic tendencies, we have no reason to doubt it.
For furtlier " info " along this line see Avidon.
28
Croxin. D. T-
Westerly. R. I.
Champion silent man of the class. Wears a \'and_vke and claims to have grown
it himself. When not at college, he spends his time as head waiter at a summer
hotel and it is said that he is an expert hand at watering milk. Cronin has actually
been known to smile on several occasions.
Crumeine, L. B. (" Crummie ") . 2 * E
Washington, Pa.
Another member of the " one best bet " gang. He is the original ladies man
and also the original lazy man. It is whispered that he formerly indulged in
athletics and at one time was a well-known Marathon runner. We doubt this, as no
one has ever seen him in a hurry.
29
Daly, C. W., XZX
Hartford, Conn.
President 07-08; Ex. Com. 09-10.
Charley entered into an association with Keating in his freshman j-ear for the
sole purpose of convenience in arguments. However, when Tom's wisdom grew,
Charley was forced to seek for a companion " in disgust " and managed to rope in
Hanrahan. He hecame quite heavy with the fair sex and consequently hought a
dress suit. When not at school, he divides his time hetween his books and his
bunions.
Davisson, I.
West Virginia
" Pa " is a man of varied accomplishments, ranging from farming to managing
a street piano. Being a man of versatile character and friendly bearing, he has won
a host of friends at college.

FiNKELSTONE, B. B. (" Fink ")
DuvALLY, F. A., * B n
Fall River, Mass.
What is all that cheering one hears? Why, that is the great applause as
" Young Harrison " steps gut on the platform of fame and popularity. He can tell
vou the meaning of every big word in his text-books, when you give him a chance
to look it up. He is small and there is not much of him, but he gets there just the
same. For verification of this, enquire of the United Railways, especially the
Catonsville Division.
Connecticut
Fink is a cheerful little chap, who is able to get there in a quiet manner. He
is one of our recent acquisitions from Yale. Is " some " musician when he wants to
be. The dressiest man in the class.

FisHF.R, T. C, * B n
Akron, Ohio
It has always been an enigma to all hereabouts as to which is the horizontal
and wliich the perpendicular diameter of this unfortunate production. Incessantly
does he talk, yet never has he been known to say anything. We all feel rather
lenient toward him, as we know of his married life and the many disadvantages of
such a state. Poor Julius!
Fleming, F. B. (" Frank "), *X
New Brunswick
The noisest man in the class. Loves to boast of his love affairs and tell of the
many hearts that he has broken. Has quite an afifinity for theatres and may be seen
strolling along Charles Street at most an)- hour. Happ>- will Frank be, when he
can take his little bride and settle down in that little town in New Brunswick.
Fox, L. O., * B n
West A'irg-inia
To look at him, one might expect him to be a man with a bov's brain, yet
would one believe that he took a poor widow's only cow in payment for his wise and
efficient medical service? So the story is told, but those who know him are surprised
that he did not take the milk pails as interest.
Froitzheim, W. J. ( Froitz " ) , * A E
Auburn, N. Y.
This round-faced youth was born in the baseball season, so to him athletics are
more important than medicine. Can give more hot air than any other member of
the class. Usually occupies a prominent seat in the " peanut gallery." Ask
Urbanski for further particvilars.
33
GoLDJiAN, Harris, * X
GioRGissi. Joseph, * A B
Uniontown, Pa.
How do you pronounce it? You don't pronounce it, — you sneeze it. Some
call him " Caruso " and others " Spagette," but they never say it to his face. He is
a member of the Black Hand in good standing and has several times tried to pul-
verize Vogt. Somewhere in the dim past, Joe kept a " speak easy," — but there is
no rse in getting personal.
naltimor:.'
' Let me silent bo,
For silence is the speech of love."
Harris is a quiet, retiring little chap, who has the faculty of minding his own
business.
34
Gkisinger, G. F. ("Oris"), K*
West A'ireinia
Oris hails from the mountainous part of mountainous West A'irginia. Was
formerly a star ball player in Gauk}' Bridge and once had aspiration of belonging
to the Baltimore Orioles. Has specialized in Mental Diseases, Eye and Ear and all
the rest of them. He knows Pimlico and can give you some points when it comes
to playing the races.
Grounds, W. L. (" Grundo " ) . X Z X. 2 * E
Houston, Pa.
Side-partner to JMoore and consequently not responsible. Interested in cab-
bage and calves. Is a member in good standing of the " one best bet " gang. Bob
Maloney is his favorite author. Smokes " Five Brothers " when he can't bum
" Tuxedo." Frequently receives a suspicious-looking box from Houston, Pa. —
Who is she, Grundo ?
Haneahan, J. M. (■• Jim "), X Z X
Unionvillf. Conn.
Jim is the original ladies' man. He has " Heinz's 57 N'arieties " beaten by at
least fifty. He is a walking directory of girls and it is rumored that the Census
C^fiice has offered him a large salary to cover Baltimore in its behalf. He rooms
with Daly, so this probably accounts for the rumor.
Harper, W. Glen, 9' 2 K, K 'I'
Elkins, W. Xa.
Another snake. A product of West Virginia University, who has learned
since coming here that the food doesn't go through the Foramen Magnum. He is
ii " cute " little black-eyed boy and is married. The missus calls him Billy. His
favorite amusements are visiting the Victoria Theatre and pitching pennies, It
seems hard for the " profs " to realize that he isn't Hunter.
36
HoLYRovD, F. F., * B n
HiGGINS. G. L., K *
Carbondale, Pa.
" I Iiave spent four long years at P. and S. by pitching pennies and attending
lectures occasionally, longing for the time when I could behold that valuable sheep-
skin and call myself a doctor. I have now concluded that rather than pitch pennies,
my happy moments will be only when I can play my violin in some orchestra with
mv Irish friend Seidel."
Athens, W. A'a.
" For he is the noblest Roman of them all." If you do not believe this, look at
that nose. Would }0u believe that such a person could be papa three times? As
for •' experience." he leads the class. What kind of experience? Well, that would
be telling, yet he still loves his little tin whistle and his weekly visits with Dr.
Simon. He is the official peacemaker of the class. Just see him prepare for a fight
and watch his coat come off — when it does, you know that the safety valve is in
perfect order.
37
Hughes, J. W. (•' Jack "), * X
Westerly, R. I.
Jack is anotlier of the class benedicts. He is marked from the others by not
having that worried look and the premature baldness. He'is very economical with
his words, and no one has ever heard him waste any. He is popular for that reason.
Hunter, W. Bvkd, * 2 K, K *
Citie, W. Va.
Ex. Com. og-io.
Formerly a builder of railroads, he is now an almost finished product of
F. and S. He came from West \'irginia University with the expectation of show-
ing the people over here how to do things. This explains why he takes notes better
than anyone else. He is an expert in Pediatrics and is called "Papa" by 517
" kiddies " at the Home for the Friendless.
38
\
Keating, T. (" Tom " ) . * B II
Kahle, G. W. ("Stufr-),*X
Oil Citv, Pa.
Year-Book Com. 08-09: Ex. Com. og-io.
Gabe is a business man, having managed even'thing from a grocery store to
John Schaefer. Has a fondness for " penny ante " and hence his nickname. Occa-
sionally breaks into elite society, and upon such occasions wears a cut-glass dia-
mond. " Stud " talks with his hands, feet and eyebrows, but only uses his mouth
for chewing purposes.
Connecticut
Tom is from the " Free and Sovereign State." This accounts for his wit an 1
cleverness. He hasn't a great deal to say, but as a rule gets there. It is said that
he is " some " man with the ladies, who delisrht in his dignified bearing.
39
Kklsea, W. H. (•• Kelse "). K *
Canada
Imported from Canada and of course dut\' free. The only reason he doesn't
grow whiskers and look like a " real doctor " is that his girl won't let him. Is said
to be the handsomest man in Canada when he is at home and proudly disjilays to his
close friends a medal won in a Handsome 2\Ian contest. His favorite amusements
are treating the sick and playing the races. Is an expert in the latter.
KiMZEY, J. A. ( ■■ Al " ), A K K
Detroit. Mich.
Late boxing instructor at Yale and at present is taking medicine as a side issue.
Lead the retreat at liillibid and is the veteran of many bull-fights. His latest act of
heroism is the capture of Jimmie McGinn's tapeworm. Never happier than when
telling of his travels. His book on " People I have met " will be published shortly.
Owns a bronze medal and several honorable discharges.
Laham, N. G. ('■ Effendi ")
Dvna
Struts around like a Pasha and manages to get in everyone's way in Ward
Class. When quizzed, he always clears bis throat and curls his moustache before
answering. Bought a can of tobacco when school opened and at last report was
saving it as a souvenir. Laham likes .\merican eirls.
Langlois, C. J. ("Charlemagne"), * A E
Sergeant-at-Arms 09-10.
Pittsfield, :Nrass.
Charlie is a cherub. When not acting as class policeman, he keeps the ladies
away from Hobson. He suffered a severe fall from the " H=0 wagon " and has
since attended medical meetings regularly. " Prof." Bill Amos uses him for demon-
stration purposes in dietetic lectures. Charlie wears false teeth.
Li:gris. L. J. A. (" Louie ")
Arctic Centre, K. 1.
Louie was born in a cold climate, which undoubtedly stunted his growth. Has
a fondness for strolling along Baltimore Street. Smokes a pipe, carries a notebook
and wears a cap. This marks him as a student. Lias a very winning .smile to
which, no doubt, many ladies have succumbed.
Little, A. L. (" Lounie "). * B n
New Jersey
" Don't we go to the same school ? " This is always his retort when some fel-
low student offers him his opinion upon some subject. But he is excusable, for
they're responsible for lots of things in Jersey. Llis moustache is hardly the success
his kinkv hair is. He was born on the same dav with Cincinnatus.
HoBSON, W. W. ( •" Hob " ) . * X
Paterson, N. J.
Ex. Com. og-io.
Hob is a Jerseyite. He is that tall good-looking fellow one sometimes sees
around the school. It is said that he is related to his famous namesake, but no one
has ever heard of his emulating the lieutenant as a kisser. Is a member in good
standing of the penny-pitchers.
LocHER. R. W., * B n
Portsmout';. Ohio
Year-Book Committee 08-09.
Ohio will some day point with pride to her blonde-haired little surgeon, who
may be known far and w-ide. Roy comes from the town made famous by leather
and Julia Marlowe. Is "right there" with knowledge in all subjects and can
impart it quicker than an}- other man in the class. Rooms and chums with Duvallev.
LoxGSDORF, H. E. ('■ Pee-Wee "), XZX
Dickinson, Pa.
Mce-Pres. 06-07; Editor Year-P.ook 08-09; ^ aledictorian 09-
10.
Pee-Wee formerly dwelt in classic halls at Lawrenceville, where, because of
his ball-tossing ability, he was known as " Cy Seymour," Since entering P. and S.
he has several times demonstrated that ability. When not engaged in winning
prize contests, he acts as tipster for the " one best bet " gang. He is a confirmed
exponent of dry cleaning. Is said t'.iat he wrote an autobiography for the Dickin-
son Astonisher, but he modestly denies it. At present he needs only a knife and a
dog to make him happy. ( )h. You Surgeon 1
McCi-E.\Ry, B. O. (" i\Iac"), *Bn
Baltimore, Aid.
As for his past, we can say little — his present is enough, " Benny " is the
pride of the class, for he is our only living example of a beautiful lordosis. Talk
about your Gibson walk — Gibson would die of cardiac depression would he see the
Benny " walk. Dr. Benny knows a great deal, for he studies until sunrise every
night. He is never down becau.se his feet are always up.
MacMillan, H. a. (•• Mac ■'), * X
Butte. Mont.
Ex. Com. 09-10.
]ilac is the wild and woolly member of our class. He has several times tried
for class president, but being law-abiding citizens, we were forced to decline his
services. He has tried everything from gold mining to pill feeding at Dr. Gundry's
Home. .A.t present it is reported that he is engaged in steering his ship in the sea
of matrimony. Mac took a course at Woman's College under the direction of
Blankenship. Heavenly Twins are right in his line, according to Duvalley.
M.«ON_, C. W. ("Charlie"), *X
Point Pleasant, N. T-
Charlie has great aspirations of becoming a surgeon. He readil\' agrees with
all, in all the points of knowledge discussed. In a few years, we will no doubt hear
of his founding a hospital on his native heath, treating the lame and the halt in
a manner that will make the Mavo Brothers envious.
MacDede, F. H. (■• Mac "),'!> B n
Xew Jersey
Mac is one of those who are tried and true. He is unpretentious and Ijears the
respect of every student in college. " He is prompt at every call." As the name
of Mac signifies, he has some of those qualities of an Irishman, and often hecomes
witty ( ?). He will be heard of later.
McGinn, J. F. ( " Jimmie " ) . X Z X
Pawtucket, R. I.
Jimmie hocked his razor, so look at what gi-ew on him. He is a horrible
example of what the hookworm will do. Is always there with the glad hand and is
ever willing to give pointers on kids' diseases. Has an extensive practice in South
Baltimore and has lately arranged with Al Kimzey to take his night calls. Jimmie

Like a blacksmith, he has a number of irons in the fire at one time, ^^'e ha\'e
been blessed ( ?) with his presence for one year only, yet in that time he has
assumed the position of " class champion of all causes." Recently he has taken
special delight in competing for at least si.x hospital appointments. We wonder
whv he is still at laree.
Moore, L. H. (" Louie "). X Z X, 5 * E
Houston, Pa.
Louie claims to have two homes in Western Pennsylvania and we'll have to
take his word for it. He is called " Grandpa " by his closest friends, but when
asked the meaning of the term, he smiles and says, "' Peafowl am a beautiful bird."
He is strong for hunting bee trees, but claims never to have been stung. His worst
fault is that he rooms with Grounds. Best natured man in the class by unanimous
vote. Note — He kept the writer in smoking tobacco since Xmas. so that the abo\c
sentence would he inserted.
Naiman, B.
Baltimore. Md.
Hails from the depths of South East Baltimore. Has a voice like a child and
a i)ose that would make Hawkshaw turn green with envy. He and his worthy
college chum, Seidcl, will no doubt set South East Baltimore afire some dav.
Newell, J. O. (" Doc "), *X
Mapleville, N. C.
Sergeant-at-Arms 06-07: President 09-10.
Doc is sponsor for the class, so it naturally follows that it is one of the finest.
He has a " nigger record " to be proud of. Never tires of telling his " darkey and
mule " story. Rooms with Trent because he chews the same kind of long cut. Doc
grew a beard to protect himself from the girls.

He is a prodigy. Is little of stature with a small head, but we often wonder
how one so small can hold the vast amount of knowledge stored away in it. Is
jolly as a cricket and his peculiar laugh can be heard all over college.

Minersville, Pa.
Rooms with Smith — and you know. Attends medical meetings regnlarly and
worl<ed the faculty into giving him a joh on the house staff. He belongs to the
bodyguard whicli escorts the " profs " into the lecture halls. Quinn thinks it is his
duty to laugh wiien a professor cracks a joke ( ?).
RiPPERT. J. A., <I>Bn
New York
A rare specimen of humanity. Jimmic went to Philadelphia to college, but
found society there disagreeable so came to Baltimore. Here he has made quite
an hit. chiefly on account of his looks. He may be known in the dark by his soft
feminine voice.
Roe, T. E.. <I>X
Travelers Rest. S. C.
Theron came to Baltimore to introduce '" moonlight corn brew," but owing to
the fight against pellagra he gave it up as a bad job. He is in the habit of making
frequent trips to the Rennert, but of corrse he is not to blame for " her " appetite.
.\t present he is on exhibition ?t Dr. Gimdry's Sanatorium and one would have to
travel afar before meeting a finer all-'round good fellow.

ScHiLLiNGiiURG, E. P. (" Schillie"), K*
West Virginia
" No, I beg your pardon, I am not a Jew." However, he was recently a mer-
chant on Harrison Street and decided to come to P. and S. to make a doctor of
himself. How well he succeeds will be known in a year or two by inquiring at
the other house in Gormania. This is the greatest place in West Virginia. Schillie
is great for Suncla\' School and ought to have been a minister.
Seidel, H., *AE
Baltimore, Md.
What is it? Duvallev says it is Irish, but we are inclined to blame it on Exeter
Street. He is a follower of Herr Most and Emma Goldman, but doesn't throw
bombs, as his picture would imply. On the contrary, he is quiet and unassuming
and manages to get along with everyone.
Seymour, G. A., (" Cy ") , $ X

" C\' " is a true sport. Visitors to the college often ask what the young well-
dressed blonde doctor is. that they see standing in the halls. The sporting page in
a newspaper is his favorite literature and he can tell you the batting averages of
any man on the big: teams.

Frank is the milv real sport in tlie class. He looks young, innocent and unso-

perfectly lovely cane and a cute little kodak. Doesn't chew, smoke or drink.
Rooms with I"ox and is rarelv seen without him. For further information, consult

Brooklvn, N. Y.
Came to us from Cornell, hut fortunately got over it. Passed a cjuiet summer
with the " bugs " at the Shepherd and Pratt, where he formed the habit of wearing
a white coat. Had an hard time getting over it when college opened. Never held
a class office and consequently hasn't any enemies.

Steinke, F., *X

Frank is a quiet, unobtrusive fellow who wears a perpetual grin. Has lived
for three years in the purlieus of Chatsworth Hill, the district famed for its chorus
girls. Wonderful to relate, no one has yet seen him talk to one. What better may
be said of him?
Sweeney, John J. ("Jack")
Massachusetts
Follow his example in all but one thing — never get married. Jack is one in a
thousand, for he bears all his sorrows and troubles with that degree of forbearance
which has won for him the respect of all his classmates. This makes him the man
worth while, for he's the man with a smile, when everything goes dead wrong.

Smith, A. C, N2N
Danburv, Conn.
The dark, handsome chap that you see here is sonie strong with the ladies.
Wears a chronic " peace be with you " expression, but looks are deceiving, as he is
known as the " hundred dollar sport." Main object in life is to make a shady place
for Quinn to walk in. He must have a terrible past, as he was very desirous that
we should not look into it.
Stamd.\ugii. E. S., *X
York, Pa.
When this little man opens his big eyes and looks at you in his innocent,
trightened way, you wonder whether he is four or more. Talks as if his words
were worth two dollars apiece. Could draw a picture of what he wants easier than
telling it. " Stam " does an awful lot of thinking that he never gets credit for.

Trunt, L. E., <E>X

Trent is a prominent member from the hookworm state. Its ravages have not

I'UCKWILLER, J. R. ( ■■ Tuck "), K *

Hails from the wilds of West Virginia. He entered P. and S. when quite
\ oung and never recovered from it. Delights in throwing chalk at \"ogt and makes
more noise than all the other " snakes " put together, which is going some. " Tuck "
never Ijums tobacco.
Urdanski, N. a. J., 'Ii AE
Buffalo. X. Y.
Where it came from and how it got here we know not — it is enough that he is
here. Any hour of the day or night, hard at work can you find him. As a piano
player, he is " some class " and little does he worry about the uncertain success of
his chosen profession. Little does he say. still less does he think.
\'OGT, M. J.. * X
Kineston, N. Y.
Spends half of his time in college and the other half somewhere along the
Hudson's classic shores. He has a voice like a graphophone and he knows it, — we
know it, — the faculty knows it, and in fact anyone passing witlnin three blocks of
the college between lecture hours knows it. Started to raise a crop of spinach, but
has since regained his self-respect. Is champion paper-wad shooter of the class.
W.-\LSH, T. H.
Massachusetts
Jim has been one of the boys during his four years' stay here. Has worked
so hard that one has onl\- to look for his hair to discover the fact. Should you wish
to find him, look among the aggregation of Sam's students.
CoSTELLO, W. J. (" Costey ") Baltimore, Aid.
Look at this man ! Do you not detect tlie unmistakable signs of the married
man? By occupation a druggist, by choice a physician. His chief amusement is
card-playing, at which he has an enviable reputation. Ostentatious in dress, and
pompous in manner, he is as good-natured as he is fat.
Roach, James E. (" Jim ") Providence, R. I.
Has anyone ever seen this man frown? He is a possessor of the secret of
happiness and is not adverse to imparting it to others. Jim is constantly bubbling
over with good nature. He is always in an hurry and is remarkable for his fast
gait. Should he ever enter a cross-country run, there will be lots of money at the
school betted on him.
Young, Spencer Utah
Young is a young man with an old appearance. This may be accounted for by
his residence among the Mormons. He is a twenty-ninth cousin sixteen times
removed, of the Prophet of Prophets. His appearance is wonderfully changed by
his smile, which happens at least twice a week.

In giving the liistor}- of a nation or a race of people, one relates simply the facts of what they have accom-
plished. When the Historian attempts to write an history of such an unique and eventful class as that of Nine-
teen Hundred and Ten, and if he is not allowed to write two or three volumes, he will have to call attention lo only
a few major operations. When permission is granted him in later years to write it more at length, he will be pleased
to get out the second edition.
There is something which characterizes every Freshman, and we were not exempt from the rule. Still there
was something about this class that compelled attention, and to our horror the Sophs noticed it, before the Fac-
ulty did. and the tanking took place in which most of us were star players.
Seeing that we needed a leader, a meeting was called and the following gentlemen elected : J. R. Fischer,
President; H. E. Longsdorf, Vice-President; J. T. Kocyan, Secretary, Treasurer and Historian. Under the leader-
ship of our President, the class picture was taken without being disturbed by the Sophs. When we entered the
6i
i!itM.ctino- room, the Sophs gave us a cordial welcome, which ended in a rush, in which though not victors, still
we were not defeated. From this time on we made ourselves at home and everything went well until examina-
tions, which were successfully passed.
On the first of Octoher, 1907, we entered into the mysteries of the Sophomore year. Some faces were missing
from our number, and new ones were filling their places. The first thing we did was to elect our officers for the
year, with the following result : Charles ^^'. Daly. President ; B. O. MacCleary. N'ice-President ; J. J- Burne, Sec-
retary ; W. D. Blankenship, Treasurer ; and H. E. Brehmer, Historian. It was next our duty to initiate the
Freshmen, which we did in the proper fashion. The year waxed on. with our efforts crowned with honor and
success. When the day of finals came eich man stood ready to do justice to himself and honor to the class.
After spending a pleasant and prosperous vacation at our respective homes, telling, with the egotism of only a
Soph, of the victories and triumphs which crowned the success of our preceding years, we returned to the old
college. Here we entered into and explored new and undiscovered fields. With the tenacity of a bull-dog, which
has marked our class, we were able to master all the difficulties. Some of our classmates did not return, but cast
their lots in other territories. We were sorry to give tbem up, but they were replaced by double their number.
With these new men, our class took on new life. Among the first duties that called us was the election of ofiicers
for the year. The following were elected : J. W. Hughes, President ; C. W. Maxsou. N'ice-President ; W. D.
Blankenship, Secretary and Treasurer ; Frederic Holroyd, Historian ; and W. Froitzheim. Sergeant-at-Arms. All
went well until about the first of December, when we were anxiously awaiting in room No. 33 for Prof. Harry
Friedenwald to lecture on the anatomy of the eye. It was announced to us that we were wanted in room No. 25
for a written Quiz on the c\c and ear. This came as a surprise to us, but we surprised Prof. F^riedenwald b_\-
proving to him that we were well versed in the subject.
Next came the " iMid-years," something that had never occurred in the history of the colle.ge. This hit some
of us hard blows, as we had expected to go home early for the holidays, but we stood them like men, and went
home all the happier, feeling that we had passed with bigh marks. After spending a pleasant Christmas at home,
we returned to our college work with that determination which means success and honor to those wbo are willing
to pay the price. The davs passed by like so many hour.s and again we were confronted by examinations. First
came the " minors,'" and then that lon.g to be remembered week of finals, which caused our gray hairs and wrinkles
to be multiplied by the score. Then we bade good-bye to our teachers and classmates and homeward journeyed,
hoping that a clear card would be our reward. The Siunmer is gone, and we are back, ready and willing to enter
the race of our lives, and our motto is to be. " Win. or Die Trving."
On greeting our friends and classmates, we note that some are absent and that others take their places. Who
should be our President was next the topic of discussion. The merits and demerits of each proposed fellow was
ably discussed. After man)' eloquent speeches had been delivered, the following gentlemen were elected : J. O.
Newell, President ; A. W. Little, First Vice-President ; Graver C. Blake, Second Vice-President : G. F. Grisinger.
Third A'ice-President; W. D. Blankenship, Secretar)'; PL Goldman, Treasurer; Harold E. Longsdorf, Valedic-
torian ; C. T- Langlois, Sergeant-at-Arms ; and Letcher E. Trent, Historian. The Executive Committee consisted
of G. W. Kahle (chairman), C. W. Daly, W. B. Hunter, H. A. ^ilac^^Iillan and W. H. Hobson.
It seems but yesterday, though we are in the midst of the " JNIid-year examinations. The Christmas holidays
are over and to-morrow the final examinations, and then, and then! ^^''hat shall the answer be?
But all great people leave something which forever keeps them in the remembrance and esteem of their
friends and the future generations. Shakespeare left literature to immortalize his name; Washington left char-
acter and political fame to his credit : Robert E. Lee left generalship for his honor : while this class leaves a record
which we hope will forever stand as a shining light to our dear Alma iNIater.

He met her on an Autumn eve,
A-walking with her cousin ;
He spent a goodly hour or more
At most luxurious buzzin' ;
And e'en while chatting with her there
'His mind was in a flurry.
For he had another to escort.
And that was all his worry.
And so this Junior trudged along
To save a friendly { ?) bicker.
For he had hoped to trade this for that-
A most enticing dicker.
And still his thoughts would linger back
To where he had longed to tarrj-
With her, who, even in the dark
Had so revealed the fairy.
Now, should he seek his lad^^'s love
A thing desirous per se,
Oh ! may the damsel he forsook
Be full of feigned mercy;
And may the imps of Cupid, too,
Upon this Junior's soul have pity.
Or any other flippant youth
Whose fancies are so flittv-

When it falls to the lot of a mortal to write the history of an immortal class, awe at first appalls the poor
mundane creature selected for the task, ^^'ere we living in the heroic age. doubtless many 191 1 sons would be
revered as demi-gods.
History tells rs of ^sculapeus. the founder of the first school of medicine on the isles of Kos .and Kindos ;
of the wonderful Hippocrates, the doctor of ancient Greece, and many other famous men of our honored profes-
sion, the stories of whose great deeds remain paramount in the minds of all to this day.

Inspired by these narrations fifty energetic neophytes., looking upon one another with envious eyes, wended
their ways in the fall of 1907 to the halls of dear eld P. & S.. where all assembled and listened to the roll call which
started us on our honored profession. Since that eventful day our class has been the " pride of all the profs." That
memorable occasion marks the beginning of our unbroken line of successes in all departments of college activity.
Some of our more ambitious students even allowed themselves to he flunked in order that they might sa\' that our
class was expert in all branches of learning.
The difficulty of writing a history of 191 1 arises from a wealth rather than a scarcity of material, and it is ob-
viously impossible within the customary six hundred words to do anything more than enumerate briefly the
achievements of the present Junior Class.
Starting with the axiomatic assertion that the class of 191 1 is to-day acknowledged the leader of P. & S.
Undergraduate life, the historian would have \ou consider not what it has accomplished or how it has won so
great prestige, but why and for what reason it is deservedly the proud possessor of all honors.
During the eventful three }ears about to close in which, under the guidance of our beloved dean and his asso-
ciate professors, our Alma ^Nlater has attained such a vigorous growth — '11 has not been idle, but in every branch
of college enterprise has taken the lead. Nothing which '11 has accomplished is an excuse for greater congratula-
tions and will be productive of more lasting and beneficial effects than the establishing of a feeling of loyalty to
our college — a broadening of our horizon and the establishment of that vital requisite, which we term college life.
The Junior year opened with a bang, and after going through the ordeal of having to witness the Freshmen-
Soph rushes, we settled down to our work. We soon found out that we were at last landed in some of the more
practical work of medicine, at last we had departed from the theoretical grind of Freshman and Sophomore
years, but not entirely, as we later found out that there was still more theory for us to learn.
Proudly, we for the first time attacked the clinics and hospital work, and you may be sure that we appre-
ciated sitting in the amphitheatre, and never once did we envy those poor Seniors who stood in the pit below, and
went through the ordeal of being quizzed as to '" their knowledge of the case."
With Prof. Lockwood, we took the theorj' and practice of medicine, together with the section work assigned
to each division of the ch.sses. From Profs. Dobbin and Gardner, we learned to take care of the ladies, and from
Prof. Sanger, we learned the sequence of events in the physical diagnosis, namely, " first inspection, then palpa-
tion, then percussion, and auscultition."
.\yd — Icb habe Langerweile !
71
No liistor}' of the Junior class would be complete without mentioning Prof. Ruhrali, imder whose generalship
we were instructed in the arts of healing and feeding, and in avoidance of those " nasty, sticky, sickish, sweet
afifairs " when prescribing.
It was always a pleasure to attend the lectures and quizzes given by Profs. Bevan, Chambers and Beck, and it
is safe to say that each and every Junior always looked forward to tiie classes of these departments with the great-
est of pleasure.
Then, too, we nnist not forget Profs. Friedenwald and Rosenthal, whose lectures and clinics it was always a
pleasure to attend and wliose untiring efforts in our behalf will always be appreciated.
No one will forget the exodus to " home, sweet home." that occurred at Christmas time. All were glad when
the mid-year " exams " were over, and it was with hopes of successful results that we took our departure to enjoy
our Christmas vacation " at home."
When we came back after the new year it was with a different spirit and new resolutions. All were re-
solved that they would fight their way clear to the end. In our lecture rooms attention was always centralized on
the " Cadaver Quartet," rightly named, for its music was such that we feared lest it arouse the dead. Here one
heard — and without charge — High Tenor Gocke, Deep Basso Hamilton and Echo. I have never been able to
find out who the fourth member of the Quartet was unless it was " Venus," adding to the harmony by keeping
still.
As a whole our class is one of wonderful personalities. It has its funny man, Kahle ; its cut-and-come-again-
man, Morgan; its sometimes athletic and occasionally sporty man, Gorman. It boasts of the " Free-Beerites " ( ?).
and its total abstinence trio (Mutchler, Smyser, Almoin) ; its classical digs (Harman, Callahan, Hutchinson and
Lawson) ; and its bugology drones (Bailey, Eckerdt and Hogan) ; its Y. M. C, A. deacons (Kelly, Hall, Hanifin
and Keegan) ; and its " Teany " Beacons ( ?), all living together in peace and mutual admiration.
Examinations with us, as a rule, result favorably, thanks to beneficent deity, and as excusable oversight on the
part of the professor in charge. Surely none of us will forget the night of March 14. For several weeks all in-
terest was centered on theatre night at " Ford's." When, through the earnest efforts of Profs. Beck and Gillis.
the true college spirit, loyalty to dear P. & S. and appreciation of the efforts of the year book committee was
shown by the enthusiastic turning out of all classes to see their old friend " Trixie Friganza " in the America Idea.
It surely was a glorious night and will long be remembered as the night of all nights.
B.AiLEY — Who thinks too little, and who talks too much.
72
But why continue ? To what purpose enumerate those personal quaUties that have contributed so much to
the prestige of 191 1? It has been said that JuHus Caesar in writing- a historj- could make his most petty
achievements seem to be of great importance. It is a poor class historian of whom the same remarks cannot truth-
fully be made. 191 1, however, does not need a Caesar to write her history. She would stand preeminent were
her historian only a Boswell. who though of mean ability himself, yet could note, wonder, admire and faithfully
record. Well it may be said that we have set the pace, and long after we have left for the sterner duties of life,
customs which we have established and paths which we have trod will be followed by our successors. In con-
clusion, let us wish long life and prosperity to dear old P. & S., to our professors, and instructors, and their
assistants, and to our dean, whose strength of character has been a forcible example to us all. By our earnest
endeavors, we have stamped our impress, and lead farther toward the larger and better life of our Alma Mater.
Three cheers for her. JNIay she be to others what she is to us, and may all her sons be as loyal as 191 1.

%nQtox^ of tljc Class of 1912
The Class of 1912 has adhered to the motto, " Little hut Good," and so, though our history is entirely too
short to fill many pages, it is, nevertheless, worth reading and remembering, for it will serve as a guide to our
successors.
I shall, therefore, enumerate the most important events which have helped to make our class famous, though
the personalities of the members will have to be omitted.
Without a doubt, the most important event thus far in the history of the class occurred on May the four-
teenth, nineteen hundred and nine, when we threw ofif our robe of emerald and handed it down to worthier sub-
jects, hoping that they might wear it as gallantly as we did. Previous to this, it should be remembered that we
were victorious in our class rush and that the annual baseball game between ourselves and our superiors was won
by our class, the final score being five to four. Much credit should be given to our pitcher, Sooy, for his great

work in the tox. is well as his timely " doutle " wit'i the willow. In this line also, our centrefielder, Burke, de-
serves congratulations for making the longest hit of the game.
On the first of October, nineteen hundred and nine, after our sun-.nier vacation, we were once more gath-
ered, ready fcr another year's struggle, though, sad to say, we had the misfortune of losing several of our good
fellows. Their place, however, was tikcn by students from other schools, principally Yale, Bellevue and West
X'irginia. As soon as we got together, we had our iirst meeting for the purpose of electing class officers. As a
result, the following men were chosen ; l-'resident, Earle H. Thompson ; Vice-President, John F. Spearman ;
Secretary, Peter L. Keough ; Treasurer, William L. Sheahan ; Historian. Manuel Janer ; Sergeant-at-Arms. Charles
F. Coughlin. The sam.e day. Air. Thompson called a meeting to decide on the best plan of attacking our Freshmen
enemies, who far outnumbered our class. Several new schemes were brought up, but had to be abandoned on
account of our lack of nuinbers. Our last resource was the usual rush, so this was voted for. \Ye rushed, and so
perfect was the plan carried out, even though we were fighting against odds of two to one, the same result as that
of the previous year followed ; we were once more victors. It was to be expected, for several " greenies " could
not find the doors and consequently had to use the exits of least resistance — the windows. Several went so far as
taking refuge in the college library, but to no avail, they were rushed to the street without mercv. After eur
decisive victor}', we retired, hoping that the poor Freshmen were satisfied, but it seems that that was not the case.
To provoke another rush they had their own account of victory in the newspapers of the city. As this was done
without our consent, and clearl_\- showed that our inferiors were trying to shine in the wrong places, we held a
meeting to decide on some plan that would show the real state of affairs. There was much debating upon the
various plans brought up, and after long discussions a scheme was decided upon and carried into perfection the
next day. While the Freshmen were in Room No. 34, listening to a Chemistry lecture, we surprised them with
two hundred pounds of flour and a two and a half inch fire hose. The spectacle that followed may easily- be imag-
ined and enjoyed. It is enough to say that the " greenies " have known their real place ever since. This fact
was conclusively proven a short time ago. when they had their picture taken, as they went two Hecks away, to the
Court House, where they thought that they would be best protected from a Sophomore invasion.
At our last meeting, the manager and captain, Messrs. Keough and Spearman, respectively, of our class
baseball team, were chosen. It is easy to anticipate victory under the leadership of these two men. However, it
is for the Historian of next year to give the details of the expected victory.

Listen now O all ye nations !
All ye people of creation!
Ye shall hear the tales of prowess,
Skill nnparalleled and valor,
Told by tongue and pens of poets.
Bards and minstrels and of Freshmen.
To Their Honor be all glory!
Downward in the day of Autumn.
Those days ne'er-to-be forgotten,
Ages e'en to be remembered.
In the hot month of October,
To the center of medical learning,
Situated right in Baltimore
Continually were coming Freshmen.
They the green and verdant specie
Hailing them from Massachuselts,
New York, Delaware, Rhode Island.
Virginia, Georgia, and Arkansas.
West Virginia, Pennsylvania.
Flvnx — A still, small voice.
Connecticut, and Puerto Rico,
Cuba and God knows elsewhere.
In those days when first assembled
All these doctors in embryo —
Reader dear can you imagine —
Or Experience, has she taught you
What it is to be a Freshman?
If so, then I need not mention
All the heart-aches and misgivings.
Fears, suspense and realization
Of just a molecule a-being
In this old world vast and wicked.
One there was, altho' a Freshman.
Who was not the least undaunted ;
And in class rose up beseeching
That the Freshmen stick together ;
For the time was surely coming
When They would need all Their courage.
Now the Sophs had once been Freshmen,
Weak and humble little sucklings,
But by virtue of examination
Past this stage had evoluted
To the high degree of Soph'more,
Hard and cruel Sophomores
Of the Golden Rule unmindful.
They forgot when they were Freshmen ;
Forgot the year which just proceeded
When they would have done to others
As they wished others to do to them.
But the Freshmen were not lacking
In Vitality and Courage.
Brass and likewise in presumption,
Traits with which they're often credited.
And upon the Soph'more innocent
Made a rush oh so effectual !
Out into the street the Sophs
Were rushed by whooping, howling Freshies,
Who then with triumphant cheering
Of Room 25 proclaimed them victors.
Then to planning fell the Soph'mores,
Characteristic of their revengeful nature.
With the Freshmen to get even,
Who upon the day succeeding
Were attacked by Soph'mores frantic ;
And with whom the Freshmen struggled,
All Their skill and strength displaying.
With a foe antagonistic
Which was well matched man to man.
Out of rooms into the hallways.
Round and round and never ceasing
Went the Sophomores and Freshmen,
Clawing, punching, bruised and bleeding.
Out of hallways into gutters,
Over stone steps rolling, bumping.
Came the Sophs and Freshies clinched,
Continually for full an hour.
And when stopped by the policemen
The Soph'mores had not satisfactorily
Punished the Precocious Infants.
Once more the Soph'mores fell to planning
And a wicked plan concocted
B}' which the Weanbugs might be humbled.
In chemistry lab. the following morning.
Where the Freshmen unsuspecting
Sat with eyes and mouth wide open
Wondering at the decomposition
Of Mercuric Oxide rudd\'
Into mercury and oxygen.
Gaggicli — He seemed so clumsv and awkward and
L-he.
Their surprise — can you imagine it? —
When ihe door it was thrust open
By the Sophomores revengeful,
Hose in hand and not awaiting
Dr. Simon to make his exit,
Who with all the other Freshmen
Got his share of all things coming,
H:;0 and sacks of flour.
For the first was just the priming;
But well its purpose it accomplished.
For by it a great adhesion
Took place between the raiment gladsome
Of the Freshmen, Oh so sporty!
And the whole wheat ground so finely.
Which was hurled by all the Sophies
As the Freshies made their exit.
Made their mad and hurried exit
Out into the halls deserted
By the Sophomores cold-footed,
Who by an attack so snaky
With the Freshmen now were even —
Yes were even and then some.
But who, when they saw the Freshmen,
Their equilibrium had recovered,
Dared not face the irate classmen
Who had face and clothes bespattered
With the said and sticky mixture.
Thus the Freshmen showed Their spirit;
Showed Their loyalty, strength and valor,
When face to face and fairly dealt with.
And as for Their christening novel —
'Twas abnormal they admitted —
But then Each One individually
Cooling down beneath His collar
Realized while at it laughing
That such a stunt as this one was
The common heritage of all Freshmen.
Thus the ceremonies ended,
For the Sophomores so desired it.
And to work the Freshmen started
With a zeal and will unbounded.
It was then that They discovered
lyiiot it takes to make a doctor
Hist- and Bi- and Osteology,
Chemistry and Physiology',
Concentration of grey matter,
Foes more fierce than the Soph'mores.
But They ever struggled bravely
And They made all kinds of progress
As illustrates this little episode:
There were certain of the Freshmen
Unto Them a mate had taken,
On all sides being sore oppressed
Rose up in dismay outcrying:
" O my wife, I do thou lovest,
But Osteology, 0 Thou, You."
Others of the class excelled
In- all the other branches named;
Gained such knowledge as which follows:
If upon one's head, one standing
Should reverse this, one's position,
One would notice no discomfort.
As the blood it would not trickle
To one's feet as they're not hollow —
Or if married to the income
Of an aged widow lady
CO, which comes from the gas jet,
Gautier — A burner of the midnight oil.
86
Might make one an heir more quickly-
Or, tho' she expected the question,
Mary Jane said, " 'Tis so sudden,"
Spiritns Ammoniae Aromaticus,
Applied beneath her dainty nostrils
Brings her round to her right senses.
One there was inclined poetically,
Histologically and " spirituall}',"
When released from jail next morning
Explained his absense by this simile
As protoplasm is confined
So was I within my cell-wall —
Thus we see what must be mastered
By hard work and labor diligent.
If the Freshmen would be doctors.
This was not all they accomplished.
But one day in all Their glory,
Arianged in tens behind Each Other,
Had a picture for the Clinic
Taken without interruption
Save the visage of the Red Ant.
And if all these feats of valor
Showed a trait of perseverance,
Well 'twas said of all the Freshmen :
" As 'twas then it ever shall be
For to Them to do was as easy
As knowing what were good to be done."

jfri£ntisi)ip anti jfjcatcrnalism
Where men are thrown together, the ability for forming true friendships transcends any other gift they may
possess, and the man who can count among his acquaintances true friends, is indeed fortunate. Xo less a man
than Cicero has said : " Friendship is the only thing in the world, concerning the usefulness of which, the whole
world is agreed." Just as fire and water are necessary elements in the comfort and life of mankind, so also is
friendship. .Of friendship, Emerson has said: " The end of friendship is a commerce the most strict and homely
that can be joined ; more strict than any of which we have experience. It- is for aid and comfort through all the
relations and passages of life and death. It is fit for serene days, and graceful gifts, and country rambles, but
also for rough roads and hard fare, shipwreck, poverty and persecution."
-The word fraternalism implies brotherhood or friendship, and the great end for fraternities after all is, to
promote arid encourage closer relationship, with ultimate friendship. In conjrmction with friendship, it seems pecu-
liarly appropriate to discuss the spirit of fraternalism in a general way, for in our college the majoritv'_ o.f the men
now belong to one or the other of the five separate and distinct organizations. Certain prominent fraternity men
in the United States have been discussing the question of a closer relationship among the various medical fraterni-
ties. The writers have endeavored to point out the advantages to be gained from this close relationship. Among
other things, they have attempted to show how much more real good might be derived from fraternities, should
these organizations work in harmony for a common purpose, instead of being diametrically opposed to one another.
This is so perfectly logical, that it must eventuallv come about, but the place to begin working out this question is
right at home, among the respective, individual chapters. The cfuestion naturally arises ; What are and what
have been our mistakes, and how may we best rectifv them? The answer in brief is the word, selfishness. To
GoRM.\N — Of stature tall and straightly fashioned.
elaborate more fully, we have been self-centerecl, have worked and thought only of ourselves, or of whatever
organization to which we happen to belong. Is this the true spirit of fraternalism, or of friendship? Decidedly
not. The cure for our trouble, lies in the abilit)' to root out of our systems this monster, who squeezes and nar-
rows us into pitiable beings hardly worthy the name human. The fraternity that carries the spirit of " All for
self " into the front door of college life and work, will figuratively speaking-, be carried out the back door through
its own ambition and folly. Selfish ambition has been the rock upon which many a proud craft has struck and
gone to the bottom. To-day, it is a more dangerous enemy than ever. It is grown with human desires, and steals
upon us before we are aware of its presence. Look about on every side, and see if this is not the truth. Is it not
a fact, that an organization founded for general good, which holds this object ever before its members, usually
succeeds and prospers, and is it not equally true that an organization banded together for good which forgets its
true purpose, soon runs itself into the ground or utterly fails?
Since one of the objects of a fraternity is friendship, the several fraternities by common assent should join
hands in working for this end. A wise Providence has constructed us along different lines, and of course we are
bound to have our differences individually, but this should not destroy a kindly spirit of interest and good will in
one fraternit}- for another. Class honors and favors should be as evenly distributed as possible for the advantages
of the whole. Petty jealousies and quarrels should be forgotten, as they tend to destroy good feeling in a class
or college. Opportunities for gaining a little practical experience should be .shared. The habit of taking away
that which belongs to another is manifestly unfair, for here, at least, rights should be equal. Fortunately little of
this is done, save thoughtlessly. One fraternity should cultivate the habit of speaking well of another, especially
to prospective members. Disparaging is a bad habit and only brings discredit upon the disparagers. Every word
of praise spoken for another fraternity, is an unconscious help to one's own.
One of the advantages of a fraternity is its organization, consequently, should the several fraternities
work in unison, much more good might be accomplished than in the present unorganized bodv. j\[en of all
fraternities and those not affiliated with an organization ! let us join efforts in bringing about a better feeling than
has yet been exhibited in cur college ! The present concerns us. The future will take care of itself.
True friendship is the axis upon which the wheel of college life turns, and for that matter, the world itself.
It is the great factor that holds the human familv together.

In that simple, yet beautiful poem. " The Friendly Hand," James VV. Riley says:
"When a man ain't got a cent, an' he feels kind o' blue,
An' the clouds hang dark an' heavy, an' won't let the sunshine through.
It's a great thing, Oh my brethren, for a feller jtist to lay
His hand upon your shoulder in a friendly sort o' way!
"It makes a man fee! curious; it makes the teardrops start.
An' you sort o' feel a flutter in the region of the heart.
You can't look up and meet his eyes ; you don't know what to say,
When his hand is on your shoulder in a friendly sort o' way.
" Oh, the world's a curious compound, with its honey and its gall.
With its cares an' bitter crosses; but its a good world, after all.
An' a good God must have made it — leastwise, that's what I say,
When an hand rests on your shoulder in a friendly sort o' way."

Cold, bitterly cold, is the couch of the dead.
And darkness blacker than night
Broods over the pillow, where rests the meek head
Of him who has taken his flight.
Yet he rests undisturbed, unmoved and alone;
His comrades are deathly still.
Though naked he Hes on a slab of grey stone
He heeds not the wintry chill.
The glittering steel of the scalpel and knife
Breaks not his endless repose ;
More cruel the wounds of the soul in life
And peace came not till its close.
Then mangle the body; dismember the frame;
Take the eyes, now sightless, away ;
Cut out the stilled heart, and consign to the flame,
Remains of the once mortal clay.
Oh^ bury them deep in the receptive earth,
And veil the grave with a sod ;
Upon it-mark with the date of his birth.
'■ May he rest in peace with his God.'"
For back to the primal gloom
Where life began,
As to his mother's womb
Must he. a man,

Not to be born again,
But to remain ;
And in the school of darkness
Learn what mean

Cfje ^xi}t Cssaj) Contest
Following the admirable precedent established by our predecessors, this year's Clinic derided to continue
the Prize Essay Contest. The results of this decision were most happy.
Unfortunately the committee was unable to secure a prize from an outsider, as was the Board cf last year. It
was determined to purchase one out of the Clinic funds. Accordingly, an handsome pocket surgical instrument
case was purchased as a prize. The conditions of the contest w'ere similar to those of last year.
The Board wishes to thank most heartily the men who generously gave their time and efforts to the contest,
and the iudges for kindly giving their services.

Dear Sii': We have carefully read and weighed the merits of the essays submitted for our examination, and \vc wish to con-
gratulate each individual student for the excellent effort displayed.
The reading of the papers afforded much pleasure, and renewed our pride in the '' Old College."
So much merit was displayed in each essay that it was difficul: t^ arrive at a decision; however, all points considered, it is our
opinion that :
First Prize should be awarded to the essay entitled " The Passing of the Old-Time Country Doctor," by H. E. Longsdorf, '10.
Honorable Mention for I'cry Close Competition should be awarded to ihe essay entitled "The Unknown," by H. L. Breh-

passing of t\)t (BVu-Viimt Countrj) ©octor
The art of healing is the oldest of all arts. This is not to be wondered at, for since death was the concomitant of
life from the beginning, it was natural and instinctive to make common cause against a common foe, and by every
artifice and strategem, as well as by such skill and knowledge as each age possessed, to seek to limit his ravages
and curtail his powers. Accordingly, we find in the most primitive times, before science had reared her dominant
head, or mechanical skill had provided means to probe the secrets of nature, some form of a remedial system where
with to alleviate the sufiferings of mankind. It would be interesting to follow the origin and ])rogress of these
various " svstems " — so called, each one a proto-type of some prevailing theory or idea even to the present dav ;
each system crumbling away before the brighter light of intellectual progress, until the medical profession of to-day
stands forth with its great questions and important subjects, preeminent in the estimation of the world — and justly
so, for it has not reached its proud position without a struggle. It began as an obscure, unorganized calling, with-
out the respect of the learned, often held under ridicule and the ban of ecclesiastical dogmatism, as well as the fears
and antagonism of the ignorant and superstitious. In the course of this upward development, notable changes
have taken place. Thus in the misty past we find the " Healer," who, by some gift of nature or temperament, was
supposed to have power over the occult, and devoted himself to the combating of certain diseases b\' the use cf
" charms " and " incantations," and similar devices. In those days when anj'one was afflicted with a malady, espe-
cially of that class we now call neurasthenic, he was said to be possessed with devils, or evil spirits, and the treat-
ment he received was directed to the end that they might be cast out. These healers were the forerunners of tl'e
present-day " Faith Cure." " Christian Science " and " JNIedical Hypnotism " in general — for after all, " There is
nothing new under the sun." These practiced a species of " Black Art," lived apart and assumed a peculiar garb
and manner. By this necromancy they increased their scope of influence, and were regarded with awe, not un-

mixed with fear, for were they not in league with the Powers of Dartiness ? Following this class came the gath-
erer of herbs and roots. He possessed some knowledge, for he knew the best times and seasons for their per-
fection. He knew their habitat in forest, field or marsh, and frequently became an expert in the common
knowledge of nature, and in the adaptation of these simple products to certain forms of disease. In outlying
communities these formed a useful class, and even )'et are met with, hawking their home-made remedial prepara-
tions here and there among the hills and valleys of a rural district. They, too. became the pioneers of a system
which will always find its advocates and field of usefulness.
.As society coalesced and educative facilities increased, the regular practitioner came to the rescue of the
country inhabitants and supplanted all these crude agencies which had served their day and need, and were now
swept aside by the advancing tide of civilization. Increased population and wealth made the village and remoter
districts sufliciently attractive to draw the aspirant for professional success to the "' Settlement " or " Cross
Roads," where he speedily made his influence felt. Usually he was a yoimg man who, by dint of effort and
great sacrifice, had succeeded in going through his medical school with a satisfactory amount of knowledge and
mental equipment to warrant his further practise. \Vith a very slender purse, he took his place in the chosen
spot, bought a few drugs and a case of absolutely necessary instruments — among which was sure to be a lancet
and probably tooth forceps — put out his " shingle," and soon had opportunity to test his skill. Sometimes he
purchased a horse and vehicle — just as often he waited for more affluent times. To look back over the history
and life work of many of these men is infinitely pathetic as well as inspiring. The good the}' did to their fellow
men in myriad ways outside the limits of their profession, the dignity and honor reflected on their calling by
their altruistic lives, made the very name of Doctor a stamp of nobility. Possibly they did not know so much of
the scientific side of their profession as their successors in the towns and cities, surrounded by the glittering
paraphernalia required by modern surgerj', and the towering book-shelves crowded with the latest emanations
from the medical press — ^volumes of books on Sanitation, on Bacteriology, on Hereditary Influence in Disease,
on Pharmaceutical Preparations, and last, but not least, on Medical Ethics. The old-time Country Doctor did not
waste time on these questions. He was in the country, and being there was bound to meet with flies and mos-
quitoes and other well-known representative insects. He could not exterminate them. He hardly knew if they
had any part in the epidemics that sometimes broke out in his field of practise. So he treated results, and in
point of fact his patients usually fared remarkablv well. He probably was aware, as he drove on his rounds, that
very often the water supply was not strictlv in accord with his own wishes, for barn-yards and cess-pools were

located in such a manner that he could not fail to realize the deleterious effects of such a coujunction. The
Doctor was identified with his environment. He knew the length of the farmers' purse, and that it was next to
impossible to improve the conditions. So, he truste-i to the influence of open air, and the sturdy constitutions
of the country folk, and if evil should follow, he was there to help fight the enemy. As to heredity, he was the last
man to infuse such a doubt in the minds of the happy young couples, who, all ignorant of a possible danger, enlisted
under Hymen's banner. It is at most a variable question, and he judged it was the business of Providence to
help them through. That bugbear, jMedical Ethics, never crossed his path. Doctors were not so plentiful then,
and his own field was broad enough to spare a case or two to an encroaching brother. As to microscopic investi-
gation and laboratory work, he could not combine it with his regular work. The long drives in all weathers,
over bad, frequentl\- dangerous roads, and the strain of personal responsibility, which was a natural outgrowth of
his closer personal relations with his people, made any additional labor impossible. These closer relations, un-
known to us of to-day, were not confined to his ofSce of medical helper. He was as the occasion demanded, the
father, confessor, the legal adviser, and always the friendly counsellor of such as needed him in any capacity.
His bosom was the safe repository of the secrets that threatened the happiness and repute of his confidants, and
many a heart, wrung with grief and dread of shame, found in him the help and sympathy far beyond the help and
power of ordinary medicaments. Of necessity, he knew nnich of human nature. The inner history — even the
pre-natal history of the different members of the families he ministered to, was an open book to his wise com-
prehension. It was not needful that they should press his particular attention to the patient he was called to see.
He knew the sources of the sorrow that weighed down the dreary-eyed girl, he had watched as she grew to
womanhood — some loss, some disappointment had stolen awav the vigor and beauty that had once characterized
her. Was it the master of the house ? He knew, too. what business venture had prostrated his courage and left
him a prey to plysical weakness and possible disease. Well might Whittier say, " The wise old doctor takes his
way," as he described the old-time Country Doctor, whose library consisted of not much more than the U. S.
Dispensatory, and who was beyond the allurement of the telephone or automobile.
It is not possible in a brief sketch worthilv to depict this striking figure in the development of the noblest
of professions. His duties and activities were so various and manv-sided, his character and personality partook
of their nature, and he stands forth a type never to be paralleled. For alas, the Country Doctor is a thing of
the past. Like his humble predecessors — the " Powwowist," the gatherer of the hill-side herbs, the " Faith-Healer "
— he is giving way to more advanced methods, and the hamlets and villages that dotted the country over, and in
HoNELLnM — Icli bin ein Student.
which the Doctor once reigned supreme as representing the best and highest in culture, in right living, in care
of the healtli, are rapidly becoming deserted of this influence. Now when the baby gets sick, or the boy breaks
a bone in the ball game, a member of the family rushes away to the telephone office, or better still, takes the new
automobile and looks up the young graduate in the nearest citv who can tell all about the noxious influence of
the house-fly, the mosquito and the barn-yard drain, and who can prescribe for the bab\' over the 'phone, and
unite the fracture by the aid of the X-ray.
We marvel at the great changes that have taken place during the past few }ears in our country, but without
doubt the greatest relative development has occurred in rural and outlying districts. When we pause to consider,
we appreciate that the change has been gradual, that for vears the country at large has been preparing itself for
the present-day state of advanced civilization, or more general education. Of all the various agencies that have
been at work, the Country Doctor, perhaps more than anv other single factor, has played the most important part
in blazing the pathwa}" that would admit of present-dav conditions. Was it not he, representing in a large
measure the learning of his communit}", that helped penetrate the dark clouds of ignorance, that allowed the
sunshine of knowledge to break through, dispelling foolish superstitions, beliefs and fears, the barriers that stood
in the way of advancement?
Now while we, with tenderness and all due reverence, thus briefly lay aside the subject of this article, yet in
the future we will often conjure up in our imagination a figure, our ideal type of the Country Doctor, " whose whole
life is a blessed ministry of consolation and hope." Perhaps it may assume the likeness of the splendid picture a
famous artist has painted, whicli represents the Doctor plunging through a driving storm of snow, guided only by a
hazy liglit to an humble cottage where the sick little child so anxiously awaits him, or it may take some other
form equally as attractive.
In this retrospective mood, with a mental picture of our worthy predecessor before us. we can well afford
to pause and munnur a prater of thankfulness for him whose patience and perseverance with the people among
wdiom he labored, has made it so much easier for the young physician of to-day. In addition may a study of the
unselfish manner in which he lived and labored, very often without hope of recompense, the long hours of physi-
cal work and mental stress in all kinds of weather and during all hours of the day, furnish us. who are following
in his footsteps with an inspiration, far more impressive and lasting than we could hope to gain from the lives
of any other class of men.

When the Httle Potinnk doctor
Finds his repertoire of pills
Proves entirely unavailing
To relieve your aches and ills,
He advises consultation
With some big gun in the town ;
So the city doctor gets you
When the country man falls down.
When the mighty city doctor
Finds his potions and his drugs
Do not cure your aching body
Of bacilli and of bugs,
He advises rural quiet
To upbuild your system slumped.
So the country doctor gets you
When the city man is stumped.

In the class rooms they are meeting for the tray.
As their colors they display,
Full of vim and hope are they.
While the beating
In their bosoms and the greeting
Of their comrades are defeating
Dire dismay
Who will lose, who win, the day?
Look! the "sophs" with haughty bearing
Three divisions they have planned
While their foes — a single band —
Calmly sharing
All the confidence and daring
Of their leaders, are preparing
Firm to stand.
What a courage all command !
Lo ! the signal for the battle echoes there.
To the fight the "' sophs *' repair.
Rushing on in mad despair
With a rattle
As do herds of hounded cattle,
Where did e'er such noisy prattle
Rend the air?
And the echoes answer, Where?
are at hand ;
Fiercely on each other falling, see them go
To the center, head and toe!
See the perspiration flow!
How appalling !
Is the mauling, and the crawling to and fro
And the moaning from below!
Oh, how sacred are the places, which they gain
And which they struggle to maintain
In the seconds that remain !
And those faces !
Filled are they with grim grimaces,
Quite bereft of former graces
Yet how vain
Is the look- of wild disdain.
Lo! again the signal's given, and away
From the turmoil and the fray
Scarcely willing to obey
Are they driven.
Hard and well, the ranks have striven
Some are happy, some are riven
With dismay-
Naughty Fresh has won the day.

To crib or not to crib : that is the question :
Whether 'tis nobler of the man to suffer
The thoughts of low marks from enraged professors,
Or to take tips when up against the questions,
And by thus cribbing, pass them. To fake, to sham:
That's all and by this sham to say we know
This question, and the countless other ones
Our course is full of, 'tis a great temptation
Not lightly to be spurned. To fake, to sham :
To crib: perchance get caught: aye, there's the rub;
For in this hour of work what professor may come,
When we have pulled the thing from out our sleeve
And make us pause: there's the regret
We made the thing of such great length ;
Still who would bear reproach from better self,
From professors strong, from old friends so well known.
The thought of unfair play and' masked deed done,
The misery of reproach and the spurns
That honest judgment of one's shortcomings gives
When he himself knows he's fallen short
Of his ideals? Who would not play fair,
103
By cramming work many a weary night
Wlien that fair thought of something afterward,
The satisfaction coming from the fact
Tliat all oirr work is ours, strengthens our will
And makes us rather do things on the square
Tlian take from others help unfairly gained?
Thus conscience would assist to set us straight
And thus our best resolves and resolutions
With no small backing strong.
And many crises of import and moment
With this mind will be surmounted
And without a shattered ideal.

In beginning this narrative, I know that there will be many to whom it will seem incredible, many who will
scoff, and still a greater number who will pass it b}' with a sinile at what thej' will tenn the phantasy of an
overworked brain. But there will be some — those stronger minds — who, perchance, will give it at least one
serious thought, and it is for these that I now set forth that strange incident which until the present has been
locked securely in my memory.
To-night, as I sit in this little room which constitutes my one refuge from the turmoil of the busy outside
world, a vision rises before me which brings with it the reminiscence of a certain not too pleasant experience.
The " plot," as the critic would saj', was inaugurated at the decennial reunion of the class of '98 of which I
have the honor to be a member. Some of us may remember Dick Seldon's toast, and also rem.ember the way in
which it was received. His subject was " The Unknown," and I well remember that no one took him seriously,
the toastmaster, in fact, in commenting upon it, lightly stated that in the future his cognomen would be no longer
" Dreamer " — as he had been styled at college — but instead he should be called " The Great Unknown."
Something, I know not what, impelled me to seek Dick out when the farewells were being said, and knowing
that his seclusive nature would send him back to his home with his message — vi'hatever it was he meant to con-
vey— undelivered, I suggested that he stop with me for the night, hoping for further enlightenment. To my de-
light he accepted, but not one word of the " new thought " of his, would he utter on the way. On reaching my
apartment I produced the " weeds " and so encouching ourselves before the fire, we prepared to put the finishing
touches to the occasion. We talked upon various topics and finally by way of goading him on. I said :
" Dick, old man, of course you don't believe all that rot you gave us to-night about Ultra-Violet Rays."
Kahle — Full of sOLind and fury, signifying nothing.
" Every word of it," he answered Ijriefly.
" But who has ever seen it? You know it is beyond the spectrum."
" Have you ever seen the messages flashed by wireless? " he astced, and there he had me.
" Oh, of course I admit there are such rays, Ijut what I am sceptical about is that marvelous life-giving
stinnilant you claim they possess."
" I made no claims," he retorted. " I simply suggested that " —
" Sure, I know, Ijut then there is something back of all this ; I know a man like you wouldn't fool away his
time over a fancy."
1 knew he wasn't impervious to flattery, and by touching his vanity I hoped to secure his confidence. I was
well rewarded, for suddenly turning toward me, he said: ssio.--
" By Jove, I'll do it ! Old fellow, if you are really interested, I will show you something that before long may
revolutionize medical science. All I ask is that you will pledge yourself to secrecy until such a time as I am
prepared to give my discovery to the world. I have already performed certain satisfying tests, but of course the
thing is in its infancy and it may be months before I can complete it. However, if you are really interested
enough to accompany me to my home, I will show you the grounds for the suggestions I made to-night at the
banquet. Besides, a litle trip up state won't hurt you, for \'0u look as if you hadn't taken a vacation since com-
mencement night."
This profifer of intimacy coming from Dick Seldon, whom I knew to be a confirmed recluse, rather winded
me; however, I managed to recover enough to thank him and accept his invitation.
" Well then," said he, " lets to bed, for our train leaves at eight in the morning."
It is needless to say I slept little that night and bright and early next morning I jumped into my clothes,
hurriedly packed my suitcase, and after a light breakfast, we started for the station. On the way, Dick remained
as close-mouthed as a clam, and I believe he regretted his offer of the night before. However, I pretended not to
notice his mood and studiously avoided every topic that might hinge upon the cause of my journey. On the
train, we had little to say, as he buried himself in his paper and I strolled forward into the .smoker.
After a ride of two hours, we arrived at our destination and preceded immediately to his home, where we
were met by his housekeeper — like myself Dick being a confirmed bachelor — and I was shown my room. Of
course I was for seeing the invention at once, but my host positively refused to enlighten me until after lunch.
Keeg.\n — He was a soldier, a soldier brave and true.
1 06
He did, however, permit me to stroll through his laboratory, which was full}- equipped and appointed according
to modern methods. Here was a shelf of retorts, there a shelf of flasks arranged in order of capacity ; below,
there were test tubes in their racks, while off to one side, in a little screened space, were his reagents in their
shining glass bottles. There was the usual array of Bunsens, racks, crucibles and evaporating dishes and down
at one end of the room hung an heavy green curtain which enclosed perhaps one-fourth of the room space. This,
I surmised, was his sanctum sanctorum and consequently did not intrude upon it.
In a short time lunch was announced and so for a while I was occupied in thoughts other than those of lab-
oratory. When, however, my host arose with a perfunctor}' " Come on," I followed with an alacrity that dis-
pla}ed my eagerness. He led the way straight to the " shrine " and parting the curtains, bade me enter. I could
make otit but little, owing to the fact that the enclosure was lighted by a single small window, the glass of which
was of a dark green hue matching the curtains. Gradually my eyes accustomed themselves to the dim light,
which I found to have a soothing effect, and I could make out an apparatus resembling an X-ray machine in
contour and to one side stood a dynamo and transformer.
Turning to my host I said, " Dick, old man, before lunch I was trying to decide whether }'cu were a physi-
cian or a chemist. I had almost convinced myself that you were the latter, and now you turn out to be an electri-
cian. Tell me, what are you, anyway ? "
He smiled indulgently and went on making connections between his electrical apparatus and the queer-
looking instrument or machine wdiich I had noticed upon entering. It resembled, as I have said, a Roentgen
ray apparatus, but the tube instead of being empty, contained a clear amber fluid. The tube was filled to within
an inch of the poles, which were four in number.
After completing his preparations he turned to me and said, " You remember that in speaking of the Ultra-
\'iolet Rays last night, you stated that no one had ever seen them ; my friend, in that you were wrong. I have
seen them and will soon show them to you. You see the apparatus is simple enough in itself; I have simply
arranged for a cross-fire of currents. It is not the apparatus, but the liquid in the tube that is the crowning
stroke. I shall be forced for the present to keep its composition from you, but that matters little. It is the effect
you want and I am prepared to show it to you. If you will look just below the tube you shall see what the
spectroscope cannot show you."
He turned and pulled a switch. Immediately there was a sharp report, followed by a series of crackling
Kelly — Care is an evening to life.
107
sounds, and tjradually a mist-like cloud formed below the tube. The crackling suddenly ceased and in its stead there
was a low humming- noise. The mist took on a soft delicate tinge, neither violet nor purple. It was rather a
blend of colors than a single color. " Watch the clouding painting of the setting sun, with their variegated shades
shifting constantly as the shadows deepen, then only can you conceive of the delicacy of the tinge which ema-
nated from the globe." A moment later Dick cried, " Time's up : one minute is all I can allow because of the
tension in the tube."
One minute! and it had seemed hours as I watched that magnificent play of colors. " Old man, I congratu-
late }'Ou ; why, you have accomplished " —
" What," he broke in, " what good would the mere production of these rays be to mankind? "
"Why, of course, that's so, but then it is something to have accomplished this much."
His question had disconcerted me and I was at loss for an adequate reply.
"Don't look so crestfallen, Jack," he said; " do you suppose I have brought you here merely to delight your
eye with a new color? No, I have gone still further into it and I have found that these rays are inimical, in fact
deadly, to certain bacteria. The cocci have a peculiar resistance to them, as have most of the bacilli. There is
one species of bacilli which succumbs readily after a thirty-second exposure. This variety is no other than man's
greatest enemy, the tubercule bacillus. I have experimented and have found that the most virulent cultures are
destroyed. What is better still, T have inoculated rabbits and have later given them the tuberculin test to which
they have reacted positive. On subjecting them to the penetrating rays for three exposures, of one minute dur-
tion, I found after a lapse of one week that there was a negative tuberculin reaction. In as much as m\' experi-
ments have been thus limited, I am necessarily unwilling to give my discovery to the world. After a few more
tests wliich I have in mind, I hope to be able to secure enough proof to insure at least recognition by the
association."
During this recital I had stood in open-mouthed wonder, and now I fairly embraced him.
"Dick," I cried, "you're famous! Nothing has been done to equal it since the work of Pasteur. I always
thought that ' Dreamer ' would some day have one of his dreams realized."
He smiled and thanked me and turned to adjust something on his apparatus. What transpired in the next
few seconds I will never know. It may be that the switch fell, or that the insulation was worn from some part
of the wire, but be that as it may, just as he was leaning over the tube preparatory to disconnecting it, there came
KiLBOURN — For I am nothing, if not critical.
io8
a sharp report, like that I had heard when the current had first been turned on. Immediately there followed a cry
of mortal agony. There was a crash, and man and instrument lay upon the floor.
He was dead when I reached him, his body having received the full force of the powerful current. The tube
was broken into a thousand fragments, while the precious contents — now worthless — stained the boards on which
it had splashed. That which was to have been the monument to his fame had become the instrument of his death.
Little remains to be told. After the burial, I returned to the city to take up the ceaseless grind — the com-
mon lot of the doctor. To-night, as my thoughts revert to that eventful day, I cannot but wonder if it were fite
or Providence that led Dreamer Dick into the Unknown. H. Lyons Brehmer, 'io.

(J^iir Inspiration
Inspiration is that sometliiiig outside of ourselves, and not a part of us, which engenders within us a deter-
mination to do certain things — to accomplish certain results. This inspiration may be in many forms. As in the
days of ancient knighthood, it may be " My Lady Fair : " or it may be the desire to accumulate money — not for
any particular purpose, but only to pile up money — to be a niulti-millicnaire. It may be fame — to be known and read
of all men. Or it may be power — that at our bidding, things move or stand still. Or it may be political honors ; or a
desire to be great in literature, in music, in art, in law, in theology, or in medicine.
These are some of the things which inspire men — which make them spend days and nights in working, watch-
ing and waiting, so that they may lose no chance or opportunity, and that they may attain the desired end.
Some of these " inspirations " are worthy — some are unworthy. But more worthy than any of them is the
inspiration of " love of humanity " which leads men to fill their lives with good deeds for the benefit of their fellow
men. This is by far the worthiest of inspirations, and is the one which will bring to the worker the greatest reward
of this life — a happy and a contented mind. Wliether there is a future life need not be considered — it will pay for
this life alone. Other inspirations may stimulate as greatly — and though the end attained may be the highest pos-
sible, may indeed reach the full realization of all ambition and desire, yet there lacks satisfaction. None of these
other things satisfy. The mental unrest remains. Happiness is missing. Only one inspiration oflfers the mind
and soul the rest for which it seeks — the happy contented life — rand that is the inspiration of love of others — the
unselfish doing of things for others.
Is this possible considering our frailties and our surrounding circumstances? It certainly is. Each man is his
own master. It has been beautifully said :
Lawson — What strong man is this?
no
' Out of the night which covers me.
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods there be
For my unconquerable soul.
It matters not how straight the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul."
Each man can be what he wills to be. There is no stich thing as luck or circumstance controlling his clestinv.
Talk not to me of souls who conceive sublime ideals, but deterred by fate and bound by circumstance, sit desolate
and long for heights they never can achieve. It is not so. That which we most desire with understanding, we at
last obtain in whole or part. I hold there is no rain or deluge that can quench a heavenly fire. We build our ships
with timbers of the brain. \Vith products of the soul we load the hold. Where lies the fault if they bring back no
gold, or if they spring a leak upon the main? There is no luck, no chance. The will is all. So be it, thou art pure
and strong of purpose, thy success is sure, but fools and sluggards prate of circumstance. Inasmuch then as these
things are true and we have choice of what will be our inspiration, may we choose that our lives be those of misel-
fish devotion to our work — loyalty to duty — the doing of good to our fellow men.
'Tis the human touch in this world that counts,
The touch of your hand and mine.
That means much more to the fainting heart
Than shelter and bread and wine.
For shelter is gone \vhcn the night is o'er,
And bread lasts merely a day,
But the touch of the hand and the sound of the voice
Sing on in the soul alway.

iHr. 9[lt)ert's 9[pI)orismj
When one percusses over a medical student's pocket, one gets a dead, empty note.
Pocket-books and bill-folds give a peculiar flat sound.
Any other note one gets over the pocket or pocket-book is due to coin or bills.
When this is due to coin one calls it " going some " ; when due to bills, it is called " flush.'
^rof. 33et)an's ^Sostulatcs
I. The student must be present at all quizzes.
II. He must be interested solely in the study of medicine.
III. His enthusiasm must impart itself readily to his associates.
IV. Such associates must be similarly enthused and in turn, devote themselves to the study of medicme.
^rof. ganger's C|)rrr Cartiiac ^Propositions
I. A student's appetite ma}- precede the first meal of the day ending with it.
II. A student appetite may take the place of, and follow the first meal of the day.
III. A student appetite may take the place of, and follow the second or third meals of the day.
Note. — The first is a very rare one and found only in a few selected cases.
Smyser — Amend your ways and your doings.

iHftiical i^tajrims
1. It's an ill wind that blows the doctor good.
2. To err is normal, to cure divine.
3. A patient in the office is worth two in the grave.
4. Never operate during periods of depression, particularly financial.
5. It is best to have operated and lost, than never to have operated at all.
6. A stitch in time saves embarrassment.
7. An ounce of pretension is worth a pound of cure.
8. When patients relapse, its nature's fault : when they die, it's their own.

1. First of all, one should always carry one's self as
though one had a broom-stick up one's back or an anky-
losed spinal column.
2. Assume a position as if one was just about to fly by
extending the arms outward at an angle of 450 with the
body, and flex the forearm at right angles with the arm
(see cut).
3. In offering a lady one's arm, one extends the arm
slightly, at the same time raising the forearm and placing
one's hand firmly upon the ventral aspect of one's anat-
omy, in such a position that the palm of the hand will
cover the point occupied by the ensiform appendix of the
sternum. Always have the fingers and thumb extended
and adjoining. This latter is especially important.
4. When giving a lady acquaintance a present, one
should always remove the price tag unless it is a \'ery
expensive present.
5. If one steps on a lady's train never stop to make
excuses, but make a hasty retreat.
0. It is never in good taste to indulge in personal
pleasantries, such as referring to a lady's artificial teeth
as her collection of porcelains.
Trh'peit — A fool must now and then be right by chance.

Mr. Bacillus Anthrax and two hundred tliousand millions of his children arrived at C. of P. and S. Pier No.
50 last week via the 120-lb. transport " James,"
There was a delightful coasting- party among the Inlluenza children last night, over on snowflake No. 123,-
456.789,000,000,000, just as it was falling' into the courtyard of the IMercy Hospital,
^tr. Tubercule Bacillus lias announced his intention of moving into the pleural district of Mendelsohn (2d
year) with his entire family. He says there is a fine chance for some lucky chap to get in a lot of work there,
and he means to be the one.
Mr. B. Typhosis has engaged an high-spirited an:l good-looking house-fly for transportation purposes this
coming season.
There was quite a disturbance the first of this week in one of our newly-acquired cellular possessions — the
little point on Lawson's neck known as Carbuncle, The Aureus company of the Staphylococci regiment, who
were on guard duty, were suddenly attacked by an advancing party of the Leukoc\'tes. Happily, however, the
defenders had their new double, back-action chemotactic riHes and readily disposed of the intruders, leaving a
corps (core) of their dead bodies in the field.
The large membrane manufactory' of the Diphtheria company has been working but half-time lately, due to
lack of their regular working force. An epidemic of antitoxin has been going around which has forced many
hands to quit. In fact, a number of deaths are reported.
Report has it that Gasoformans. the noted rope milk walker, has been arrested by Prof. Stokes for bad con-
duct. It is said that it is almost impossible to elude this member of the medical force.
Thorkelson — The secret of success is constancy of purpose,

Ycu sing a little song or two,
You have a little chat,
You eat a little candy fudge
And then you take your hat;
You hold her hand and say good-nighl.

For a great big healthy man.

Dear old college of my classmates.
May the seasons never bring
That sad day when I forget thee
And the joys thou used to sing :
For thou gavest me in manhood,
When all other friends refused.
Words of peace and consolation.
As within thy halls I mused.
Dear old college, alas ! how many
Are the long and lonely days
Since I last beheld thy beauty
In life's parting sunset rays!
And though oft' my feet have wandered
Into pathways dark and dim.
And though oft' the cup of sorrow
Has been crowned full to the brim.
Heaven knows I would be happy
Could I thread thy halls once more.
Lost in class time meditation.
As I did in the days of yore.
But to wish is nothing, nothing!
I can only say farewell.
With a yearning in my bosom
Far too great for tongue to tell.

' Come boys, bring the lyre, and we'll have a song
" Of battles — for there were two —
"Twixt Sophomores and Freshmen
Who hold traditions true.
' 'Twas truly a battle royal,
Each Soph and Fresh matched well;
We certainly had them " going some.'
So the records plainly tell.
II
■ The Freshs were gathered in Twenty-five,
Fully three score ten of them,
To take their initial lecture
Under Fort the medicine man.
VI
' The battle waged long and furious
Full an hour and an half, 'tis said.
And when the clouds of dust arose
Not a man was found quite dead.
Ill
' The Sophs tho' weak in numbers,
Went in to do or die,
While half the Freshs took to their heels
When they heard the Juniors cry.
VII
' Tho' three were counted down and out—
Dwyer, Floyd and Brown —
While Silver, the sturdy half-back.
Might have gone another round.
IV
' ' Freshmen Out ' was the signal yell,
And we shall never fail
To remember how those bloodj- Sophs
Came at us tooth and nail.
VIII
'Thus ended the first of the battles;
We thought we'd won the day.
So we did, but the following morning
We found to our dismay —
WiLLiAjrs — Give thy thoughts no tongue.
141
IX
' That the enemy didn't think so,
For with hose and flour they came
From above in the amphitheatre —
So we simply didn't remain.
XII
' The Freshs and Sophs then take to the street.
Both Juniors and Seniors too;
And the battle is renewed in earnest.
Until the bliiecoats pinch a few.
X
' And the venerable Prof. Simon,
Had he the presence of mind,
Might have easily evaporated —
And thereby escaped in time.
XI
' He stood by his post like a soldier,
And bore his Waterloo ;
But when the Chemistry linals come
Few Sophs will ever get through.
XIII
' Away they're rushed to the lock-up,
Thus endeth the second fight ;
And if we hadn't bailed them out,
They'd have slept in there all night.
XIV
' In all it cost us an hundred bones,
About thirty cents per head.
The College was out some, we believe,
Though never a word was said.
XV.
" Some hope this ancient class rush
With us has breathed its last ;
For tho' a time honoured custom,
'Tis a relic of the past."
ZuKciiEK— 1 shall he as secret as the grave.

How Scareci Uc U-
Trippett (Junior) — " Mr. Stewart (father of the baby doll in the Freshman class) — your son has joined a
college fraternity. These college fraternities —
J\Ir. Stewart — " Never mind about breaking it gently. ^Vhat ward of the Hospital is he in ? ''
You'll always find them sitting close
With mouth to mouth, nose to nose.
Talking always with moving hands.
A trait acquired in foreign lands.
They're here to see and see it all
Altho' they are not very tall,
Of course you know who they can be
The " Three Twins " — Michel, Honellin and Arovonski.
Coughlin (who has just passed his Anatomy) — Professor Harrison, were you ever able to demonstrate by dis-
secting the Right Thoracic Duct? "
Professor' Harrison — " Young man, there is no such structure, and don't ever attempt to demonstrate one on
the examination paper."
It is said that Frank Steinke is a warm advocate of the Weir-JNIitchell rest cure.
Broke, broke, broke —
I'm as broke as the waves in the sea ;
I would I could fling in their clutches
The bills that have come to me.
Ah, well for the millionaire sport
That he rides in his automobile !
Oh well for the nouveait riclie
That he eats his Waldorf meal.
And the creditors still come on.
And camp at m}' chamber door;
But, oh for the sight of my vanished " cash '
And the credit that is no more.
Broke, broke, broke —
And I would they were all in the sea.
But the day when my " credit was good "
Will never come back to me [
E. S. H.
Professor Stokes (stopping on the street corner) — "What's the matter, little boy?"
^^'illie — " Oh ! mother sent me to get a bottle of milk and I fell down and broke it."
Prof. Stokes (consolingly) — " Oh, never mind, don't cry over a little thing like spilt milk,
full of gfcinis, anyway."

A telegram sent by Shea (freslimaii) asking for five dollars, brought the following reply, " Take care of vour
money. I can't dig it up in the back yard. — Your father."
Barber^-" Which side will I part your hair on ? "
O'Connor — " The middle will do as well as anywhere. There are about six on one side and half a dozen on
the other."
Prof. Ruhrah — " Kahle, what is the difference between an antidote and an antagonist? "
Kahle — "An antidote is to be taken before the poisoi, and the antagonist is to be taken afterwards."
Harman — " Oh, Zurch ! what is the Flexner-Harris bacillus? "
Zurcher (with show of great wisdom) — "That causes diphtheria."
Keating (at 'phone) — " Hello, is this Miss 'i Well, this is Dr. Keating, and I have Mr. Daly with nie."
Daly (interrupting) — " Well, I am just as much a doctor as he is, even if I have never skinned a rabbit."
He saw her 'neath her summer shade,
With her charming deep blue eyes,
Almost inviting him to partake
Of the pleasures of Paradise.
But he simply smiles, and she moves on
With a form like a mystic flower,
And his chance is lost which might have won
In that most opportune hour.
And then they wonder how it was
The fellow had not kissed her;
The answer is a simple one.
The girl was his own sister.

At tlie next banquet, will someone remind Bill Gocke that he will probabfy have otner opportunities of
drinking champagne.
Prof. Novak (in Physiology class) — " Segarra, what is Leukopenia, and how- is it obtained? "
Freshman Segarra (who thinks that his boarding house does not give enough to eat) — !' Professor, Leuko-
penia is the loss of white blood corpuscles and may be obtained at my boarding house."
Hanrahan (wearing an evening suit for the first time) — " .-\.re these little holes in the bosom of mv shirt for
Who in the Faculty Room did stra}'
Mid " Profs " his learning to display?
Our Billy Boy!
But when the news reached- the gang
In choral unison they sang
" Oh look who is our ' Prof ' this day.
Who? Our Billy Boy."

Htitti^ iHcUical
A canine's lung is in Bill Brown.
His friends are all agog;
Though once the laziest man in town,
He's now working like a dog.
The stomach of a steer is sewn
Inside of William Fox,
And so 'tis not surprising he
Is eating like an ox.
Miss Dolly Bly is often seen
To give her skirts a swish ;
One eye Is hers, and one's a cat's,
Which makes her kittenish.
Though he is always butting in,
Don't put the blame on Sydney.
It was a goat that saved his life;
They're of the selfsame kidney.
